ASTM International and Formnext announce the Standards Forum and Wohlers Report LIVE, Nov. 14, at Formnext 2022 in Frankfurt, Germany. These two events, supported by Mesago Messe Frankfurt, the organizer of Formnext, seek to provide Formnext 2022 attendees with knowledge and understanding of the additive manufacturing (AM) products and services on display at Formnext and serve as a roadmap for the upcoming show.
Attendees are invited to join the Standards Forum at Formnext 2022, returning for its 4th year. The Standards Forum is organized by ASTM International, U.S. Commercial Service, and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and supported by Formnext. This one-day workshop focuses on using predictive-based qualifications to drive AM industrialization in various industry sectors, increasing awareness around standardization and fostering transatlantic collaboration in the field.
Following the Standards Forum this year is Wohlers Report LIVE, an interactive, late afternoon and evening event that includes presentations on key findings and industry trends and audience discussion with the core Wohlers Report team. Attendees will gain expert views and insight on the future of AM systems, materials, scaling to production, investment, and a lot more. Wohlers Report LIVE will also serve as a roadmap to help guide attendees as they navigate the Formnext 2022 exhibition.
“Wohlers Report LIVE will provide opinions and perspective you cannot get elsewhere,” said Terry Wohlers, head of advisory services and market intelligence at Wohlers Associates, powered by ASTM. “The AM industry is constantly evolving, which can create challenges in making the best decisions. Our experts offer the most interesting and relevant information on the current state of AM and how it affects you and your organization.”
“Offering a platform for the ASTM Standards Forum and Wohlers Report LIVE the day before Formnext perfectly combines the world of standards with one of world´s best known industry reports,” states Sascha F. Wenzler, Vice President Formnext at Mesago Messe Frankfurt. “Joining them with the world’s leading trade fair for additive manufacturing creates even more tailwind for the AM community and beyond.”
Each year at Formnext, visitors experience new technologies and services that advance the development of AM worldwide. Bundle packages to attend both events are available. Registration to Wohlers Report LIVE includes Wohlers Report 2022 and a complimentary pass to Formnext 2022.
